How to lower your import car insurance costs.

If you’re an import owner, or thinking of becoming one, you probably fall into one of two categories:  either you own an exotic import, purchased for performance, prestige, and luxury, or you’re an economical import owner, and you bought your imported car to reduce maintenance and fuel costs.  Either way, you’ll want to maximize any discounts available on your import car insurance policy.

First, if you’re not yet an import car owner, you might consider the following factors before making your car selection.  They will influence your import car insurance costs rather dramatically.

  • What is the frequency of repair required for your make and model?
  • How expensive is the average repair cost?
  • How accessible is the nearest import car dealership authorized to service your make and model?
  • How expensive are parts for your import?
  • Are there any consumer safety recalls in effect for your vehicle?

While replacement part costs might not deter anyone from purchasing a new Ferrari, drivers in slightly less ostentatious circumstances might do well to consider the impact of import car service convenience and costs.  A quick consumer advocacy organization search will likely provide all the required information to help you with this aspect of your decision.

Once you’ve selected your car, there are a couple of avenues to explore to keep your import car insurance costs down:

  • If you own more than one car, insure both with the same car insurance company.  Multi car insurance policy discounts can be up to the neighborhood of 20%.
  • Use an auto insurance discounter to do the grunt work for you.  Specify the policy parameters you’d like, and they’ll search their database of policy providers and policy options to present a well-scrubbed short list of viable import car insurance candidates.  You’ll pay a smidge extra on your premium to help pay for their work, but they’ll find a good deal for you, and save you tons of time.
  • Get the safety options on your car.  Anti theft, daytime running lights, and air bags all decrease your policy premium.

Spend just a bit of extra time to set yourself up for savings, and you’ll enjoy significant import car insurance discounts.
